Patient's question:
My nephew is almost two years old, but he can't even say simple words like "" (daddy) or "" (mommy). When I talk to him, he just makes baby sounds. Babies his age already know how to talk and some have even started kindergarten. However, because he never speaks, we haven't sent him to kindergarten yet.What kind of help do you need: What should I do if my baby is almost two years old but still can't talk?
Doctor's answer:
At the age of two, if a baby still never responds, it may be that each child's growth and development varies. Some babies start talking early, while others take a bit longer. Of course, it's also related to the family environment and guidance. At this time, parents should try to communicate more with the baby, tell stories, browse, listen to children's songs, or play games to practice responding. Or use a coaxing method to encourage the baby to talk. When the baby wants something, don't give it to them immediately. Instead, let them say it first and then give it to them. This will leave a deeper impression and help them remember better.
